Twelve Days, But Who's Counting?

Surgery is on Halloween, in twelve days. I hope the recovery room staff at the hospital aren't in costume that day.... can you imagine waking up from surgery to some monster or crazy character??

I'm doing well other than being extremely tired. I have spent a lot of time resting and praying. My body is tired, but my brain is fully charged! I'm told it's "normal" but my understanding of normal only relates the the washing machine :)  I'm not depressed. I do have moments of fearfulness but I pray for courage and the Holy Spirit comforts me. I have a great deal of faith and the prayers of my family and friends (and their families and friends) provide an assurance that could be provided by no other.

It's been hard to be at home. The weather looks beautiful but I don't feel like venturing out even to the patio. I want so much to be at school. I NEED to be at school. I need to tie up some loose ends and I need to see my kids before I have surgery. I ask for specific prayers for energy to be able to work all next week. I need to be there.

Thank you all for your love, compassion, encouragement and prayers! Terri
